Chelsea stole a dramatic late point in Wales on Tuesday night but they still failed to capitalise on Manchester City slipping up and remain rank outsiders in the title race.

Up in arms: Sinclair enjoys his goal against old club Chelsea picture: Action Images

Swansea looked virtually certain to claim another impressive scalp in their debut Premier League season, courtesy of a splendid goal from Scott Sinclair , but an equaliser from Jose Bosingwa deep into injury time saved the visitors.

The Swans made the brighter start to the game but Daniel Sturridge had a sight of goal for the visitors, dragging his shot wide from the edge of the penalty area.

The deadlock was broken six minutesÂ before half-time, with a Bosingwa header falling to Sinclair, who brilliantly hooked the ball over a despairing Petr Cech and into the Bluesâ net.

The visitors dominated after the break, with substitute Michael Essien firing narrowly over the crossbar.

With four minutes remaining, Ashley Cole was sent off for a second bookable offence, meaning he will miss Sundayâs showdown with Manchester United.

And right at the death Bosingwaâs shot took a wicked deflection off Neil Taylor and flew in past Michel Vorm.
